situation. in which liefound it linself; n eon iequence of Gneral.Beresford's'Optration.; ; and us soon .as I had ascertained that are_ faCt Was true, I [parched 'on • the meriting of , the J 411) with the army -in two Column's. teyvards the River AL nho. At the same time I directed' General Ileresford upon- Chaves, in ease the enemy should turn to his tight; And Major-General .Murray to communicate with General Bercsford, it he should find, as report . d, that Loison remained in the neighbourhood of Arnaranthe. ' On the evening of the 14th, T was certain from the movements of 'the enemy's detachments u. the neighbourhood of Braga, that .he intended to..direet his retreat upon'Chaves, on . Monte Algre; and directed General. Beresford, in case of the latter movement, to push on for lvfonterey, so as to stop, the enemy, if he should pas+, by Villa de Rey. General 13..tresferd had anticipated -my Orders •to march his own corps upon Chaves, and had already sent General Sikierra to occupy the passes of itlAi• Vats and Melga,sey near Salattionde, but he was un-. fortunately too late. I arrived at Braga on the 3 sth (General Murray being at Guimaraens, and the enemy about fifteen .Miles in our front) and at Salamonde on the 16th. We had there an etfair vsith their rear guard.— The Guards, under Lieutenant-General Fillet bTooke; and Brigadier-General Campbell, attacked their po sition ; and having turned their left flank by the, heightli, they abandoned it, leaVing a gun and prisoners behind them. This attack was necessarily made at a late hour in the evening. ' On the 17th, we moved to Buivae - s, (waiting to see whether the enemy Would turn upon Chaves, or continue his retreat upon Monte Alegre), and on the 18th to this place. I here found, that be had taken a road through the mountains, toWards Orense, by whicb'it would be. difficult, if not impossible, fur me to overtake him, and on which I hid no means of stopping him. The enemy, commenced this. retreat, as 1 have informed your Lordship, by destroying a great pro portion of his guns and ammunition. He after wards destroyed the remainder of both, and a great proportion of his baggage, and kept nothing except ing what the soldiers, or a few mules, could carry., fir has.left behind him his sick' and wounded ; and the road Item Penaftel to Monte Alegre is strewed with the carcases of horses t 4 mules, and French . soldiers, who were put to Teath by_the peasantry before our advanced guard could save them. This last circumstance is the natural effe6l , of the species of warfare which tbe enemy have carried on itt this country. Their soldiers have plundered and murdered the peasantry at their pleasure; and I have seen many persons hanging on the trees by the sides of the roads, executed, for no reason that I could learn, except.: ing that they have not been friendly to the French invasion and usurpation of the Government of their country; and the route of their column, on their retreat, could be traced bytbe smoke of the villages to which they set tire. • • We have taken about five hundred prisoners.— lipon the whole, the enemy has not lost less than e fourth of his army, and all his s artillery and equip ments, since we attacked him upon the Vouga. I hope your Lordship will believe that no measure I,vhich 1. conkl take was omitted to intercept the enc. my's retreat. It, is obviOns,: however, that if an army throws away all its cannon, equipments, and baggage, and every thing whiCh can strengthen it, and can enable it to at together as a body, and abandons all those who are entitled to its proteclion, but add to its weight and impede its progress, it most be able to march by roads through which it cannot be follcswed with any proape6tof being over taken by an army which' hat nut made the same sacrifices. it is impossible to say too much of the exertions of the troops. The weather has been very bad in deed. Since the 13th, the rain has been, constant, and the roads in this difficult cOuntry,almost inipiac tieahle. But they have persevered in the pursuit to the last, and have been generally on their march from day-light in themorniogtill, dark. The brigade of , Guards•were at the head of the column, and seta laudable examples i►ud in.the aft. fair with the enemy's rear-guard, on the evening of the, (hey conduded 'themselves remarkably well. I have (he honour to be, &c. (Signed) - ARTHUR WELLESLEY.
